Convert WMF to GIF
The JDeli Java image conversion library comes with WMF support makes it very easy to convert WMF to GIF image files in Java and other languages/scripts.
To run the code examples you will need to download the JDeli jar:
Convert WMF to GIF in one line of code
The JDeli.convert() methods allow you to save WMF as GIF in just ONE line of code!
Using File
JDeli.convert(File inFile, File outFile);
JDeli.convert(File inFile, EncoderOptions encoderOptions, File outfile);
JDeli.convert(File inFile, File outfile, ImageProcessingOps imageProcessingOps);
Using InputStream and OutputStream
JDeli.convert(InputStream inputStream, OutputStream outputStream, "gif");
JDeli.convert(InputStream inputStream, EncoderOptions encoderOptions, OutputStream outputStream);
JDeli.convert(InputStream inputStream, OutputStream outputStream, ImageProcessingOps imageProcessingOps);
Using byte[]
byte[] outputData = JDeli.convert(byte[] inputData, "gif");
byte[] outputData = JDeli.convert(byte[] inputData, EncoderOptions encoderOptions);
byte[] outputData = JDeli.convert(byte[] inputData, "gif", ImageProcessingOps imageProcessingOps);
Batch convert WMF to GIF from command line
Change image formats from command line or bash, bat, and powershell scripts. This method can also be used to invoke JDeli from any programming language that allows you to create a child process.
java -jar jdeli.jar --convert gif "inputFileOrDir" "outputDir"
How to convert from WMF into GIF in Java as separate steps
Sometimes there is a requirement to convert between formats as separate steps. JDeli also allows the image to be read in as a BufferedImage and then written out later.
- Read WMF image into Java
BufferedImage bufferedImage = JDeli.read(new File("wmfImageFile.wmf")); - Process image if needed (scale, sharpen, lighten, watermark, etc)
bufferedImage = operations.apply(BufferedImage bufferedImage); // Optional - Write out BufferedImage as GIF image file
JDeli.write(bufferedImage, "gif", new File("gifImageFile.gif"));
